Before you list or cut an SVG
- Vector paths — the design should be made of paths and shapes, not a photo.
- Sized correctly — a viewBox or width/height makes it import at the right scale.
- Text as outlines — convert text to paths so buyers do not need your exact font.
Frequently asked questions
What makes an SVG “cut-ready” for Cricut or Silhouette?
It should be true vector shapes (paths and outlines), have a defined size or viewBox so it imports at the right scale, and contain no embedded photos. Text should be converted to outlines so the machine cuts the letter shapes rather than needing the exact font.
Why is embedded raster a problem?
Some SVGs just wrap a PNG or JPG photo inside. A cutting machine cannot cut a photo — it needs vector paths. This checker flags any embedded raster image so you know before you list or cut.
